State of Gasification Worldwide
EUROPE
 Only funded IGCC projects with
USA / CAN
 Market slow down due to economic
recession, lack of financing and
uncertainties about CO2 legislation
 Funding and loan guarantees
released in USA/CAN > 5 B USD
 Multiple IGCC projects and Coal to X
(CtX) projects supported by US
government
 EOR opportunities
90% CCS are discussed and one
IGCC project seriously ongoing
 IGCC has strong competition from
post combustion
 EU selected 6 CCS projects for
funding: 1 bio EUR
 Few biomass gasification activities
ASIA
China:
 Largest gasification market
 3.000MW IGCC program
 Mega CtX projects under development
India:
 Gasification for steel industry and CtX
under consideration
Rest: (e.g. South-Korea, Indonesia)
 Couple of coal projects under
development (mainly CtX)
AUSTRALIA
BRAZIL
Rising interest in biomass and coal
gasification
AFRICA
Small number of CTL projects under
discussion
 Successful implementation
depends on CO2 legislation
 2 governmental funded IGCC
projects
 Large CTL and fertilizer projects
under development
Limited by Delayed Climate Legislation and Reduced Access to Debt and Equity for Large Capital Projects
But: Increasing fuel prices (crude oil), security of supply and beginning recovery of economy
starts driving new gasification projects primarily in Asia

Conclusions
 Near term global demand for gasification based
solutions is focused on projects that produce high
value products and can address climate change now
 Near Term: Using EOR for CO2 storage
 Longer Term: Price signal for carbon is necessary
 Economic hurdles still exist for gasification based
projects that the next wave of projects will address
 Government financial support for commercial scale
demonstration projects will help accelerate
deployment
 Longer term energy megatrends will drive demand
for gasification based solutions for power, chemicals
and clean transportation liquids
